Went in one morning to chat about treatment options for my daughter and ended up leaving with braces (the SAME day!)! I did not expect this and yet the office staff checked our insurance, figured out what would still be owed and payment options. It was such a smooth and stress-free process. We left having a very positive experience and would recommend them to anyone considering using them as a provider.

Absolutely love the Howell orthodontics, they are absolutely amazing people. Our oldest daughter came here and has a beautiful smile. We are now in the process with our son and we can’t wait to enjoy them all again. If your child is in need of braces of any sort they are the best in the valley hands down. From the front desk to all the hygienist staff to Dr. Howell and Wendy that sets you up. They are all so amazing to work with.Thank you

Yesterday was our first visit to Howell Orthodontics - a consultation with scans and imaging etc. From the moment we walked in we felt like VIP’s! The office is beautiful with a fun alcove for the kids to play in. The service is fast, organized and streamlined. The staff is the very best part!! We ended up speaking with many of them and they are knowledgeable, helpful, positive and made you feel like part of the family! We now have a treatment plan and Dr. Howell (celebrity that he is) was amazing. Everyone goes above and beyond and truly cares. One thing I really appreciate about this office is that they explained things - I don’t know what I don’t know but I want to do right for my kiddos. Overall a wonderful experience and I look forward to the progress that will be made. Thanks Howell Orthodontics! (And thank you for sponsoring so much in the community as well!)

We just started our second child at Howell and have nothing but wonderful things to say about them. The quality and professionalism of the office and staff are excellent. The staff are so friendly and personable that both of my teens report back enjoying their visits. They are quick to get you in office if there is a problem they need to fix. They are also best at responding when you reach out to schedule. Compared to several other offices they got back to me the fastest and it was an individual from the office, not a bot. Thank you Howell and special shout out to Wendy for making the process for our most recent child so easy and welcoming!

Howell orthodontics is absolutely amazing. Dr. Howell is awesome. He knows what he is doing, is super nice and so are his employees. My son has been going here for about 2 years and I have no complaints. They are always willing to work around your schedule and have no problem if you need to reschedule for any reason. I would highly recommend Howell orthodontics if you are looking to have yours or your children's smile improved.

I came to this office for Invisalign and I couldn’t be any happier with that decision. They were so helpful during the entire process and made it feel way easier. The front desk ladies always remembered my name, and the staff as a whole are super charming, very welcoming and really make it such a comfortable place. Dr Howell knows his stuff! Really nice and down to earth guy who is precise and neat about his job. Literally the only minor ehhh with this place is the privacy. People can see your “Aahhh” and “Awww” faces because it’s one big room, but you get over it. Absolutely recommend this place to anybody and have already pointed people this direction. Thanks Howell gang!

Dr. Howell is amazing! Very fun and inviting atmosphere! His staff always have a smile and are willing to answer any questions regarding treatment.

The first thing I noticed was the inviting waiting room. There is a small room for kids with video games and other activities.The front desk ladies are warm and welcoming. It's clear they are expecting you to walk in as they greeted my daughter by name.The doctor is so busy running from chair to chair but never to busy to answer all the questions I had and talk about my concerns. The assistants are fantastic and helped my daughter feel comfortable and explained the process to her.I'll add to this throughout our experience since it's going to be years of bracesHighly recommend.

We chose this practice after getting quotes from two different offices. This office was the only one to catch an airway issue that required surgery on x-ray before we got braces on my teen, so we chose them based on this health alert that was missed by others. Howell Orthodontics keeps orthodontic treatment fun and laid back. They engage children in the process of their care. They see patients of a wide range of ages. They give a 5% discount for cash pay for treatment in advance, which includes retainers and repairs after treatment is concluded. Dr. Howell’s staff always treats us kindly and with respect. We will definitely be returning if we have additional needs in the future in our family.

I am currently doing Invisalign at Howell Orthodontics - I have to say I was skeptical about what this was going cost and the length of treatment - however the team at Howell was nothing short of AMAZING! They were able to work with my insurance as well as a payment structure and I have to say this was much more affordable than I initially planned! Their communication is outstanding, and their bedside manner is great as well. Thanx y'all I look forward to a straighter smile 🙂

Howell orthodontics is amazing! The staff is so kind & knowledgeable. My kids love the kid area in the office. Wendy did a really good job explaining exactly what hardware my daughter would need & broke down the cost. She helped me with all my questions & concerns as well & got an appointment for my daughter to get her braces very quickly. The day my daughter got her braces the staff really helped her not be afraid. The staff guided her through exactly what was going to happen step by step & made sure that she had everything she needed for her after care. I would highly recommend Howell Orthodontics.

I have had a great experience with Dr. Howell. One kid has had braces and has such a beautiful smile. He is so happy with his appearance now it is amazing the difference. I currently have another one of my kids in braces and the difference in his attitude is so heart warming. He is so much happier now. I am also currently in the process of another kid starting his journey. Then onto the next. I will bring all my kids back to Howell Orthopedic. I have also referred my best friends daughter and she is currently in braces and is super happy. It is such a happy place.Update!!Whoop whoop 🙌🏼 since this review, We just put braces on our 4th son! I love this group! Always so fun walking into the office with such great welcoming smiles! Then leaving so satisfied with their work! Only 2 more boys to put braces on! Heck yeah! Let’s Go!!

After researching and meeting 5 different Orthodontics we selected to go with Howell Orthodontics. From the moment I stepped into Howell Orthodontics, I knew I had made the right choice for my son's orthodontic care. The clinic itself boasts a welcoming and meticulously clean environment, setting a reassuring tone for every visit. Wendy did a fabulous job explaining the process, payment options, and the plan and she answered every question I had. Wendy provided clear explanations of procedures and is transparent about costs and payment options The team at Howell Orthodontics is exemplary. Each member, from the receptionists to the dental assistants, displays a level of professionalism and warmth that makes every visit enjoyable. Their dedication to patient care is evident in their meticulous attention to detail and the patience with which they address any concerns or questions. Madelyn was extraordinary with my very fidgety, anxious son. What sets Howell Orthodontics apart is its exceptional customer service. Appointments are easy to schedule, with flexible hours that accommodate busy schedules and after-school hours available. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure comfort and satisfaction, offering support and guidance throughout the entire treatment process. In conclusion, my experience at Howell Orthodontics has been outstanding. The combination of advanced orthodontic services, a highly skilled and caring team, and unparalleled customer service makes Howell Orthodontics the go-to place for anyone seeking to improve their smile. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone considering orthodontic treatment. Thank you, Howell Orthodontics, for exceeding my expectations and providing a level of care that truly stands out.

They have the friendliest staff here! Everyone is so welcoming and they spent so much time with us during our consultation, answering every question we had. Dr. Howell is great with kids & everyone put my 9 year-old at ease when he was nervous for his appointment to get his braces on. It went so smoothly and it feels like everyone is cheering him on for this journey. Great experience!
